TERRIBLE AFFAIR.
Lady FrightfulIy Stabbed by n Drunken
Italian.

PIrrTBURs, October 23d.-To-night Mrs.
Lizze Adams, of Washington street, was
murderously assaulted by an Italian named
John B0sso while on her way home from
church. Bosso was intoxicated, and was
annoyed at a crowd of hoodlums who were
tormenting him. Finally he became SO
enraged that he drew q knife and turned
upon his tormentors. At that moment
Mrs, Adams passed, and the frenzied man
rushed upon her and thrust the knife into
her back, the long blade passing through
her left lung.
With . cry of pain his innocent victim
fell fainting to the pavement, and her as
sailant turned to flee. The mob of hood
lums seized him, however, and after beat
ing him with sticks and stones, were only
prevented from lynching him by the inter
venJion of number of determined citizens,
who rescued the bleeding and helpless man
and gave him up to the police.
Mrs. Adams was carried to her home
She is in a critical condition, and will
probably die

BURIAL IN ANAM-When any one OF
their number dies, friends and neiehbors
hasten to the mountains, hew down tree,
hollow it out, and after having washed and
dressed the body, put sugar cane into its
mouth and invoked the shades Of the dead,
place it in this rude coffin, open the eyes
50 rs to look heayeHward, and then care
fully sealit up. On the day of burial sac
rifces are indulged in, according to the
means of the relatives of the deceased.
The grave is usually made in forest, and
the hewing Of trees therein is supersti-
tiously avoided. A soothsayer, or priest,
plants two reeds at the border of a stream
in such manner that the parents of the
dead can pass underneath; while doing
this he sprinkles water upon them which
has been used to clean rice. After
washing their clothes and cutting their
hair they enter the house, and, in order to
show the depth of their sorrow, throw
everything about the house into confusion.
The priest arriving, he reproaches them,
restores order, and sprinkles o kind OF holy
water in order to drive out the evil spirits.
